Reminder : Next MPUG Melbourne Meeting on 27th April 2010

The Melbourne chapter of MPUG will be holding it’s next bi-monthly session on the 27th April 2010 at the Microsoft offices in Freshwater Place. This month there will be two presentations:

Martin Vaughan, a Director and Senior PMO Consultant with Core Consulting Group will present the first half of this session covering Project, Program and Portfolio resource management. Starting with the basics of the schedule model, this presentation will consider potential and practical tips relating to modelling resource needs on individual projects through to full EPM environments. Implications relating to scheduling standards, cost reporting, time sheeting and overall utilisation will be considered.

Alex Burton, a senior EPM consultant with OBS, will then provide a product tour highlighting Project 2010’s approach to Resource Planning and Management and its influences on project portfolio selection.
